Soil Database Downloads

Please note, soils data for Texas, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin are automatically installed with the interface. If you want to use the soils data for another state, you will need to install the additional data separately by downloading the zip file for the desired state by clicking one of the links provided below.

To download any of the above files from our FTP server, follow the link below.

To install the data:

  1. In the directory drive:/Avs2000/AvSwatDB/AllUs/statsgo create a directory for each state of interest using the 2-letter alpha code for the state (e.g. TX for Texas, MS for Mississippi, etc.)
  2. From the CD or the web site, copy the zip file containing the soils data for the state to the directory created in step 1.
  3. Unzip the soils data using WinZip or pkunzip.
